Wearable information handling device outputs

Abstract

An aspect provides a wearable information handling device, including: a display; a band; one or more processors operatively coupled to the display; and a memory device accessible to the one or more processors and storing code executable by the one or more processors to: after identifying information to be communicated, form an output directed to the band of the wearable information handling device; and provide the output to the band; the output actuating one or more elements of the band. Other aspects are described and claimed.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A wearable information handling device, comprising:
 a display;   a band;   one or more processors operatively coupled to the display; and   a memory device accessible to the one or more processors and storing code executable by the one or more processors to:   after identifying information to be communicated, form an output directed to the band of the wearable information handling device; and   provide the output to the band;   the output actuating one or more elements of the band.   
     
     
         2 . The wearable information handling device of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more elements are actuated to change the overall size of the band. 
     
     
         3 . The wearable information handling device of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more elements are mechanically actuated. 
     
     
         4 . The wearable information handling device of  claim 2 , wherein the one or more elements are swelled. 
     
     
         5 . The wearable information handling device of  claim 1 , wherein the code is further executable by the one or more processors to receive one or more user inputs;
 wherein the information to be communicated is identified using the one or more user inputs.   
     
     
         6 . The wearable information handling device of  claim 5 , wherein the one or more user inputs are selected from the group of user inputs consisting of audio input, touch input, and gesture input. 
     
     
         7 . The wearable information handling device of  claim 1 , wherein to form an output comprises processing the information to be communicated into a coded output directed to the one or more elements of the band. 
     
     
         8 . The wearable information handling device of  claim 7 , wherein the coded output comprises output provided to a plurality of elements of the band portion. 
     
     
         9 . The wearable information handling device of  claim 8 , wherein the coded output provided to a plurality of elements of the band portion actuate at different times according to a predetermined code. 
     
     
         10 . The wearable information handling device of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more elements undergo a conformational change responsive to output. 
     
     
         11 . A method, comprising:
 identifying information to be communicated;   after identifying information to be communicated, forming an output directed to a band of a wearable information handling device; and   providing the output to the band;   the output actuating one or more elements of the band.   
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein the one or more elements are actuated to change the overall size of the band. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein the one or more elements are mechanically actuated. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 12 , wherein the one or more elements are swelled. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 11 , further comprising receiving one or more user inputs;
 wherein the information to be communicated is identified using the one or more user inputs.   
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 15 , wherein the one or more user inputs are selected from the group of user inputs consisting of audio input, touch input, and gesture input. 
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein forming an output comprises processing the information to be communicated into a coded output directed to the one or more elements of the band. 
     
     
         18 . The method of  claim 17 , wherein the coded output comprises output provided to a plurality of elements of the band portion. 
     
     
         19 . The method of  claim 18 , wherein the coded output provided to a plurality of elements of the band portion actuate at different times according to a predetermined code. 
     
     
         20 . A wearable information handling device, comprising:
 a band;   one or more processors; and   a memory device accessible to the one or more processors and storing code executable by the one or more processors to:   after identifying information to be communicated, form an output directed to the band of the wearable information handling device; and   provide the output to the band;   the output actuating one or more elements of the band.
